Four years ago, I had the honor to host (above) and show exclusive designs from myNIKOLAKI collection inspired by former First Ladies at the California State Society/FIDM Luncheon for the 56th Presidential Inauguration four years ago..

It was a once-in-a-lifetime event, and I was honored to be part of it. This time, I didn't make the LA-DC trip but one of my gowns did...On Saturday, the California Sate Society/CSS celebrated the Inauguration with a Presidential Inaugural Luncheon and Fashion Show. This event is a bipartisan celebration
highlighting California’s fashion and entertainment industries.

Nick, I was the model honored to wear your 50th anniversary Barbie design in the Washington DC show on January 19th - and I wanted to tell you how many compliments the dress got. Was truly a stunner on stage!!
